How the Avengers are like Pai Lum Tao

avengersHave you seen the Avengers movie yet? Are you a fan of their comics?

The one thing I love about this movie and the characters is the fact that all the heroes are some of the most unlikely heroic figures you can get. But they all have one thing in common… (say it with me) hanna.

That’s right, their heart is what set them apart and made them the heroes they became.

Thor

Thor started out with a desire for glory, to win the honor of his father. But even with this selfish pursuit, he had a loyal heart, loving his fellow warriors like they were his own brothers and sisters. “… forgetting all categories…”

Iron Man

Iron Man is the playboy of the team. He had the money and the influence but not the direction. His heart wasn’t into anything until he realized how precious life was and how he had squandered it away. “The warrior is a man who dedicates his life to the cause which Made him what he is.”

Captain America

Captain America was the smallest and weakest man. But that didn’t stop him from wanting to join the army and help his country. Despite all obstacles, he never gave up trying and kept on wanting to be better and to help. He got his chance and never gave up on his fellow men. “… dedicated to defend the honor, the creed, the pride, and the self-respect for what he wishes to be called…”

Hulk

Hulk our beloved big, green guy was a brilliant man and scientist who never thought of becoming a superhero. Yet, circumstances were forced upon him and have changed his life forever. Now, he must struggle and find balance in his emotions or risk losing control all together. … letting energy that wishes to exist, exist… go forth to seek the Tao and the void. Understanding myself and finding peace within.
